Really enjoyed rewatching Conclave at the Tyneside, introduced by screenwriter (and Gateshead’s own) Peter Straughan. If this doesn’t win Oscars, it’s some serious Tedesco shit

At the Tyneside Cinema for their 9pm screening of Eraserhead - really looking forward to seeing a midnight movie classic at a rare late-night cinema screening!

Restoring Shirley Bassey's vocals to the recent alternate Moonraker instrumental main titles from @lalalandrecords.bsky.social - personally far prefer it to what was used, and it really suits the vibe of the film

Particularly love the use of the Flight into Space motif!

Inspired by the brilliant new @calvindyson.bsky.social review of The World is Not Enough, here's a small edit downplaying Pierce's memeworthy "HUH?!" realisation.
I think Calvin is right, and a more subtle reaction helps to sell the moment much more
